He Loved Her Too Late Chapter 23
Margo left without looking back, exactly like everyone expected.Even Tyler and the others quietly breathed easier once she was gone.They all knew that if she stayed, every day might turn into this—Huxton forcing his love on her while she slowly lost any chance at real happiness.Maybe their timing had simply never lined up.They had both loved each other.Just never at the same time.When Margo loved him most, Huxton only cared about his pride. He'd rather chase after someone who abandoned him than notice the girl standing right beside him.Then Margo finally left, and suddenly he wanted her back.But nobody waits forever.***A week later, the wedding went ahead exactly as planned.Margo hadn't invited her parents, so Michael walked her down the aisle instead.She held his arm, her full skirt flowing behind her.From a distance, she straight-up looked like a princess.Even though Michael was the groom's dad, walking Margo down the aisle felt like giving away his own da

"Margo, happy birthday."Huxton's voice snapped her out of her thoughts.She forced a small smile and lowered her gaze, hiding everything she felt."Thanks."A slice of cake appeared in front of her. Margo looked up to find Huxton smiling warmly."You don't have to thank me. This was kinda last-minute. Next year, I'll throw you a real birthday party. Something huge. How's that sound?"Margo didn't answer.She took a bite of cake. The rich frosting was smooth and perfectly sweet.But to her, it tasted like nothing.Her fingers tightened around the bracelet, the amethysts clicking softly together.She didn't want any of this.She just wanted out.She wanted Chad.'If only Chad were here.'God, she missed him.'Has he figured out where I am yet? Is he still freaking out, trying to find me?'Once she got back to him, she was staying put.Wherever she went, Chad was coming with her.This was probably the first birthday since meeting Chad that Margo hadn't been excited abou
He Loved Her Too Late Chapter 21
Two days later, it was Margo's birthday.Huxton cleared his entire schedule for her.But the second he started planning the cake, he realized something pretty pathetic.He had no clue what kind she liked.So he bought every flavor he could find.Thinking about it, he realized this was the first time he'd ever actually celebrated her birthday.Before the accident, Huxton had been the golden boy. Why would someone like him care about the birthday of some broke student his family sponsored?Then he became paralyzed.When Margo came to take care of him, he was angry at the world and humiliated that she'd seen him at his lowest.So he took it all out on her.Eventually, Margo's care and encouragement helped him get better. He slowly dropped his guard and started treating people better.Just not her.He still hated that she'd seen him at his absolute worst. The only reason he'd been decent to her was because he felt like he owed her.By the time he figured out how he really felt

Margo seriously didn't get it.'Why is he doing this? He can't keep me here forever. I'm gonna leave eventually, so what's the point of any of this?' she wondered.Huxton didn't care how long it took.He was terrified she'd disappear from his life again. So this time, he wasn't wasting a single chance to be with her.By the third sunset Margo had counted, Huxton finally came back.With dozens of potted moth orchids.Two days earlier, Huxton had asked if she wanted anything the next time he went out.She'd asked for orchids.Auremont wasn't exactly orchid-friendly, but with the right care, they could still thrive.And since Margo had nothing but time, taking care of them gave her something to do.She transplanted each one into the greenhouse herself, carefully tending to them.Seeing how much she liked them, Huxton finally relaxed."Thanks."When she finished, Margo turned and smiled at Huxton, who'd been waiting by the greenhouse door.He waved it off, barely hiding his g
He Loved Her Too Late Chapter 19
Just like when Margo had loved Huxton.The second she heard his accident had left him paralyzed and depressed, she'd gone straight to him. No matter how moody he got or how hard he lashed out, she never once thought about leaving.Chad had been the same with her.She'd rejected him and pushed him away over and over, but he never gave up. Eventually, his sincerity won her over.But Huxton?She'd never felt that kind of love from him.Even near the end of his recovery, when he'd started treating her better, he'd only become less hostile.Margo lowered her gaze, keeping her emotions hidden."What about Ms. Benson?"Her voice stayed calm.Her attitude didn't discourage Huxton. If anything, his eyes lit up at the question."Margo, don't worry. I don't love Jayla. I swear."After I found out she'd thrown herself down the stairs and poisoned herself just to frame you, I made sure she paid for it. The Bensons are done in Auremont."And I know I failed you. Back then, I couldn't ge
He Loved Her Too Late Chapter 18
Meanwhile, Margo had no clue any of this was happening.Having the wedding in Carmoria had actually been the idea of Chad's dad, Michael. Michael had settled abroad, but Chad's grandparents still lived in Carmoria. Chad hadn't seen them in forever, and most of Margo and Chad's friends were there too.So Carmoria it was.Wedding planning was a total nightmare.With the big day coming up fast, Margo and Chad were constantly running around town, juggling a million things.Margo barely had time to breathe, let alone think about Huxton.She'd pretty much forgotten about him.Huxton, though?He definitely hadn't forgotten her.He even showed up looking for her.When Huxton cornered her outside the restroom again, Margo was already over it.The one time she went out without Chad, Huxton jumped at the chance.Apparently, while she was in Auremont, going anywhere alone was a bad idea."What do you want?" she finally asked.Huxton said nothing.He just stared at her like she was s
